Transfer of contacts from 1 sim to another. Is it possible?

[SOD'EM]

My OH has just gone on a contract with Vodafone. She wants to transfer all the numbers from her old O2 Pay as you go sim to her new vodafone one (without having to do them individually).

 

 

Is it possible?

Can you be a bit more specific please dx.

What phone is she going to and from?

[SOD'EM]

From a Samsung G600 to a Blackberry Bold.

[locutus]

If she has the data cable for the g600, she should back up her contacts to the PC using this software:-

 

Support for G600 SAMSUNG

 

Then on the blackberry, if she emails herself a list of the numbers she should be able to add them as contacts (it's smart like that )

Hi SOD'EM,

 

In addition to dx's and locutus' assistance here if she needs any help setting up her BlackBerry Bold there's lots of useful information in our Help Centre here.

 

If you need anything else just let me know.

 

Thanks,

Hi SOD'EM,

 

It should be easy to do - one method is:

 

1. Copy all of the contacts from the current sim to the phone

2. Remove the current sim and insert the new sim

3. Copy all the contacts to the new sim.

 

Here's the info on the O2 site for doing this:

should be quite easy if you can use the o2 sim in the Blackberry as many Vodafone contract handsets are unlocked to any network, thats definatly the 1st thing to try!
